Harrison told reporters Monday the Mavs want defense to be "our calling card," so the franchise "jumped" at the chance to acquire Anthony Davis from the Los Angeles Lakers. Harrison is nothing if not consistent.

The former Laker big man revealed what he told the player he was traded for following an emotional night in Dallas.

Anthony Davis did all he could in last night’s play-in final, dropping an impressive 40 points on 16-29 shooting. However, the Dallas Mavericks could do little else as they succumbed to a 120-106 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies to end their season.
